<blink> tag does not work with IE.

Not tested but this should work:

Put this javascript into your headinclude template:

PHP Code:

<script language="JavaScript">
var on_color = "#FF0000";
var off_color = "#000000";
var blink_onoff = 1;
var blinkspeed= 500;
function blink()
{
    if( blink_onoff == 1) {
           document.all.blink.style.color = on_color;
       blink_onoff = 0;
    }
    else {
       document.all.blink.style.color = off_color;
       blink_onoff = 1;
    }
}
</script> 


Then use this in your announcement:

PHP Code:

<font id=blink>My announcement</font><script>document.all.blink.style.color = off_color;setInterval('blink()',blinkspeed);</script> 


You can google for "blink + IE" for more info about blinking effect in IE.
